I guess you could say after the last two tournaments I got depressed. I didn't get around to writing this report until 2 weeks later. There is really not a whole lot to tell. In the morning my boater Adam predicted it would take 20lbs to win. We sped off to his starting spot, an off shore weedline. Adam got 1 bass there on a craw tube I think. On the second spot he got one on a jig. We tried a bunch of different places for the next 5 hours only getting a couple of pike. Finally on the starting spot Adam connected with another bass. I think we left and came back and Adam got 2 more bass. We left and came back to finish the day on the spot. With 5 minutes left before we had to go in I was just about to say it didn't look good for me getting the skunk today, when I had a hit on my Crazy Leg Chigger Craw. It was a 3.75lb bass, so I didn't get skunked.
Results:
My fish kept me out of last place but that was it. I was 2nd to last place for the 2nd tournament in a row. This time I finished in 26th Place. Chuck Steinbauer won it with 20lbs even. This was Chuck's 2nd victory of the season.
Thoughts:
I wish I had packed a 2nd Texas Rig Rod. I finally got the fish after going down to a 3/16th oz weight and the Chigger Craw. Would it have made a difference, who knows.
This tournament pretty much wrecks my season in terms of my end of the year standings. I'm going to need 3 strong finishes to have any shot at making the Top 10.
